A Beautiful Weekend and a Stormy Monday

This past weekend was absolutely beautiful.  On Saturday morning, Layne went to Grandma and Verbon's house to fish.  The only person that caught a fish was Verbon, but Layne was still excited.  In the afternoon, we played on the swingset in the backyard.  Then we decided to make our first Easter treats of the season...lovebird peeps.  I hadn't realized that Layne had never had peeps, but she tried them and loved them.  Of course, she wouldn't even try the lovebird peeps, but she loved just the regular peeps.

We went to church on Sunday.  Sutton started out doing well, but I ended up taking him to the nursery about half way through the service.  Last week, he stayed in the nursery without me for about fifteen minutes, but that must have just been a fluke.  This week, he would not let me put him down.  He wouldn't even get down and play with the other children when I sat on the floor with him. 
After church, we went to Cracker Barrel to eat. I think it will be our last time eating out for a while.  Just like last Sunday, he was not happy in the high chair.  We ended up eating in shifts.  It's not very enjoyable, and not worth going out.
Sunday afternoon the whole family napped.  I love a good Sunday afternoon nap!  Then in the evening we all took a walk through Old Decatur.  Penny even joined us.

Yesterday Bobby, Sutton, and I planned to go to Bridge Street to look for coordinating Easter outfits for Layne and Sutton and go to the movies to see Limitless.  It was a terribly windy day, and it was suppsed to get stormy in the late afternoon.  We looked for outfits first, but we didn't have any luck.  We went on to the movie.  It was so good, but about an hour into the movie, I got a call from Church Street Academy that they were closing early due to the weather.  We grabbed our stuff and raced home to get Layne.  I hated missing the ending of the movie, but if the weather is going to be bad, I want all my babies in the house with me.
